NCT07328074
The goal of this observational study is to explore the effectiveness of electrocautery resection combined with hyperthermic intrathoracic chemotherapy (HITHOC) in patients with thymic epithelial tumors with pleural metastasis or recurrence. The study aims to: * Evaluate whether this combined treatment improves event-free survival in patients with pleural metastasis from thymic epithelial tumors * Assess the rates of grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events * Examine how this treatment affects patients' quality of life Participants will: * Undergo extended thymectomy with electrocautery resection of pleural metastases * Receive two cycles of hyperthermic intrathoracic chemotherapy with cisplatin and doxorubicin at 42-43°C, 2-4 days apart * Complete quality of life questionnaires (EQ-5D) at baseline and regular intervals * Have regular follow-up visits with imaging and clinical assessments for up to 36 months to monitor for disease recurrence or progression
NCT07343453
This is a single-arm, phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Sacituzumab Tirumotecan, a TROP2-directed antibody-drug conjugate, in patients with advanced thymic epithelial tumors who have received second-line or later therapy.
NCT05104736
Background: There are no approved drugs to treat recurrent thymoma and thymic carcinoma. New therapies are needed for people with these cancers. Researchers want to see if the drug PT-112 can help. PT-112 kills cancer cells. It also helps the body s immune system fight cancer. Objective: To see if the study drug PT-112 can cause tumors to shrink. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older who have thymoma or thymic cancer and whose disease returned or progressed after treatment with at least one platinum-containing chemotherapy, or who have refused standard treatment. Design: Participants will be screened with: Review of medical history and medications Physical exam Blood and urine tests CT or MRI scans of parts of the body, including the brain Participants will get PT-112 in 28-day cycles, on days 1 and 15 of of the first cycle and on day 1 of each cycle after that. They will get the drug by infusion through a catheter. The catheter is a small plastic tube put into a vein. On days they receive the drug, participants will have physical exams and blood and urine tests. They will have an ECG to test heart function on day 1 of each cycle. Participants will have scans every 8 weeks. Participants may choose to have tumor biopsies on day 1 of cycles 1 and 3. Biopsies may be guided by an ultrasound or CT scan. Participants will continue treatment as long as they can handle the side effects and their disease does not get worse, for up to 8 years. Participants will have follow-up visits 2 weeks and 4 weeks after they stop therapy. Then the study team will check on participants every 3 months until 8 years after the participant joined the study.
NCT06311955
To observe the efficacy and toxicities of heavy ion radiation therapy for locally advanced or advanced primary thymic epithelial malignant tumor received R2 resection. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival and toxicities, and the secondary endpoint was local relapse-free survival, overall survival and cause-specific survival.
NCT05667948
Thymic malignancies are the most common tumors of the anterior mediastinum, though surgery and radiation often effectively treat thymic carcinomas, a minority continue to progress and eventually lead to death. Therefore, there is an unmet need for more effective therapies for thymic malignancies. Considering the role of molecular alterations has yet to be defined in the treatment of thymoma and thymic malignancies, there is an urgent recognition that molecular alterations in the thymic malignancies are important to predict response and survival for novel targeted therapies. In summary, identification of genetic alterations in thymic malignancies is increasingly essential to perform molecular diagnostics and individualized treatments. This project aims to create a registry of patients with thymic malignancies to further the characterization of molecular alterations and develop (novel) treatments based on the detection.
